Almost Anger



Write about anger you said
You who are always 
Almost my lover
Almost aroused by an image
On your Laptop
Almost a singer in nightclubs
Of your dark moods
Almost a man almost
Almost wanting me
Almost wanting me to leave you
As my emotions overflow and ebb
Almost like the sea
Flowing unlike my desire
That night we bathed ourselves
Almost together in a baptism
Of holy Beat holiness
Almost Ginsberg and Cassady
Almost a monkey and a pig 
In a house that was almost yours
The best I can muster my love is 
Almost Anger because Anger is 
Only possible when it is possible
To give you unadulterated joy
